Brothers of the Sea promise a good shoutin’ time

If you think of the most iconic Celtic music hook — just picture a stone-wall pub on a grassy knoll and think of what the fiddler would be playing — and you’ll likely hear the traditional jig “The Irish Washerwoman.” The iconic triplets that start the song jump up and down like a dancer, and the only response is to stomp your boots onto the hardwood floor.

The Detroit-based Irish roots band Brothers of the Sea, who stop by the Lafayette location of Nine Irish Brothers Saturday, have a rendition of the song that escalates in tempo and energy until it ends in a triumphant “Ha!”

It’s not the only time the group puts a new spin on classic Irish tunes. The band draws inspiration from Gaelic Storm, The Chieftains and Eileen Ivers.

Brothers of the Sea promises a good drinking, clapping, dancing and shouting time.
